Hi, I postedonce before on this, but nearly completed a sauna and just
needed some final help. I just wondered if anyone knows of a decent foil
tape, I read mixed reviews, some people say some of the tape may have
plastic in, which wont be good when heating the Sauna. Im repairing a
Sauna and using this tape below anyone had any issues with it or used it
or could recommend. Also is there many Sauna forums online, ive
struggled to find some. I found the one below but wont let me register.
Tape im using
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Kindest regards

Just be aware that in technical terms ‘ plastic ‘ is a very general description of a wide range of materials. Many of which would have no problem surviving sauna temperatures, or a lot higher.1

I've been using quite a bit of this -> https://www.toolstation.com/aluminium-foil-tape/p97723 (available in different widths). It appears to be the same brand. I've seen it used to patch a hole in a Baxi Bermuda back boiler casing which gets pretty hot. I would imagine a sauna wouldn't get as hot, so should be fine.
Any language construct that forces such insanity in this case should be abandoned without regrets. –

Treasure the moments that you have. Savour them for as long as you can for they will never come back again.1 -

The Sauna roof, if you look at pics?0 -
Thanks for replies sorry for delay been mad busy. Yeah my main issue is whether I'd be enhaling nasty gases, I might just see what happens as its in the roof and heat rises, so unlikely will come back down through the Sauna maybe?
